It is the inflation of a p\u0101hoehoe flow that shows in a compressed timescale.  A flow a foot or two thick becomes six or ten feet thick over the course of a few hours.  Also revealed are how other features of the flow form&#8230;  The ropy surface, the broken plates, the cracks where lava has oozed out.  After having watched a flow in process I see old lava flows in an entirely new way.<\/p>\n<p>Below is an old video, filmed over several visits to the lava during the summer of 2010.  I have better material now.  Some time I need to put it together into a new video.  Still, you can see the process of breakout, advance, crust over, inflate, then breakout again.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/14571638?title=0&amp;byline=0&amp;portrait=0\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" webkitAllowFullScreen mozallowfullscreen allowFullScreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/vimeo.com\/14571638\">Flowing Rock<\/a> from <a href=\"http:\/\/vimeo.com\/user500800\">Andrew Cooper<\/a> on <a href=\"http:\/\/vimeo.com\">Vimeo<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I have yet to have an opportunity to see an \u02bba\u02bb\u0101 flow advancing.
